About This Story
Same language. Two completely different meanings. One very confused Yardie!
Whoever said Jamaicans and Americans speak the same English clearly never witnessed a Yardie trying to explain himself in New York.
From innocent Jamaican expressions that leave Americans scratching their heads to everyday conversations that spiral into outrageous misunderstandings, one Jamaican newcomer discovers that speaking English doesn't necessarily mean being understood.
Lost in Translation delivers a hilarious dose of Jamaican wit, cultural confusion, and unforgettable moments when island talk meets American expectations.
Because sometimes, it's not what you say—it's what everybody else thinks you mean!
